I sit back on all the chances I'm given that I don't take   It's in my hands to fulfill the story that I'm supposed to make   Already started writing the script when I sang that first note   And now I find myself on this plane with no idea of where to go   When am I going to find myself or will I need someone's help?   When are things going to finally start going well?      [Chorus:]   I don't want to take the back seat like all the times before   Left to pick up the pieces of when I hit the floor   Putting back together my heart for the whole world to see   I don't think I have another bit of strength left in me   And all of the madness surrounding me is taking its toll   When will I get my chance to have a lead role?      The blue skies that were once here in my mind have left me now   And I don't know what there is left to do but cry out loud   I've always been a giver, never complain or take too much   But it seems like all I have to give these days is not enough   If I pray for a little sunshine, will it ever stop the rain?   Maybe if I ask for forgiveness it can take away my pain      I don't want to take the back seat like all the times before   Left to pick up the pieces of when I hit the floor   Putting back together my heart for the whole world to see   I don't think I have another bit of strength left in me   And all of the madness surrounding me is taking its toll   When will I get my chance to have a lead role?      I don't want to be left to guess how life could have been   If I would have truly given all that I have to give   I could run around in circles but then again I've done that before   Never again will I be left to pick up those pieces off the floor      I don't want to take the back seat like all the times before   Left to pick up the pieces of when I hit the floor   Putting back together my heart for the whole world to see   I don't think I have another bit of strength left in me   And all of the madness surrounding me is taking its toll   When will I get my chance to have a lead role?      I don't want to take the back seat like all the times before   Left to pick up the pieces of when I hit the floor   Putting back together my heart for the whole world to see   I don't think I have another bit of strength left in me   And all of the madness surrounding me is taking its toll   When will I get my chance to have a lead role?   And all of the madness surrounding me is taking its toll   When will I get my chance to have a lead role?
